A filmmaker compares spherical and anamorphic lenses using DZOFILM's Arcana anamorphic lens set, discussing distortion, flare, bokeh, and field of view differences.
From the video
Answers: What are the differences between spherical and anamorphic lenses and how do anamorphic lenses affect image quality?
- Anamorphic vs spherical lenses
- Lens distortion and field of view
- Cinematic flares and bokeh
What it concludes
- Anamorphic lenses stretch vertically and require unsqueezing in post-production to create a wide cinematic frame.
- DZOFILM Arcana anamorphic lenses have a 1.5x squeeze factor and a 1.33 elliptical aperture design that gives the effect of a 2x anamorphic lens.
- Anamorphic lenses provide a wider field of view and barrel distortion that bends the world on the edges compared to spherical lenses.
- DZOFILM Arcana lenses feature a white coating design that takes on the color of the light source for natural-looking flares.
